Greetings,

I currently work in the state that is known as the "Land of Enchantment" at the University of New Mexico University Libraries. My official title is Visiting Lecturer/Resident in Research & Instruction Services. I work in Zimmerman Library (Education, Humanities, and Social Sciences) with prominent duites of reference and instruction. Additionally, I select materials for the Library Science discipline, select and complete projects, and other duties.

As an undergraduate, I studied voice performance at the North Carolina School of the Arts; however, I completed my degree (B.A., Music) at the University of North Carolina at Greensboro in 2002. I taught Music in the public schools for one year after graduation. After a year of teaching, I decided to change paths (just in another education realm) and to go to library school. I started my graduate studies in June 2004 at North Carolina Central University's School of Library and Information Sciences. I finished my degree, June 2005 and started my current position in August 2005.

My residency will end in June 30, 2007 and I hope to work in another academic library where my primary duties are reference and instruction (I love to teach). Until then, I will continue to sing in one of the most phunkiest bands, Aladocious (the hostess with the mostest) and focus on my blossoming career.
